''Oh! this is a strong religious gale; we
are afraid the Church of God Is going to
be upset, and there are going to be a
great many people brought into the

They are affrighted whenever they see
revival taking hold of the churches. As
though ship captain with 500 bushels
OF wheat for cargo should say, some
day, coming upon deck: throw over
board all CARGO and the sailors should
say: "Why, captain, what do you mean.
Throw over all the cargoan
eOh,n says the captain, 1--WE have peck
OF chan that has got into this 1000 bushels
OF wheat, and the only way to get rid of
the chan is to throw Rll the wheat over
board.n
Now, that is a great deal wiser than the
talk Of great many Christians who want
to throw overheard all the Thousand
and tens OF thousands of souls who
are the subjects Of revivals. Throw
all overheard because they
are brought into the kingdom of God
through great revivals, because there is a

The Scandinavians and the University "
the following communication, ad-
dressed Ito the editor OF the Iribune,' ,
will be read with interest:
In Yesterdays issue of the Tribune,
Nicolay Grevstad has an editorial un-
der the caption Of IS he Scandinayians
and the University in which be says.
1.-The Norsemen were among the first
breakers and seeders Of the magnificent
field of Anglo-Saxon oivilization.'' This
will be strange news to many. ques.
tion the accuracy Of this statement,
and doubt the ability Of the writer to
prove it. deny, On the contrary, chat
the Norsemen, either now or at any for
mer period, haye been civilizers to any
any peOple-Saxon or otherwise. Again.
l assert that there is not in existence
an Anglo Saxon civilization, or an An
glo Saxon race. Charles Mackay, LII.
D., London, says that the term Anglo
Saxon WAS not known in the golden
age of English literature, when Shakes
peare and Spencer tlourished, nor until
the second half Of the eighteenth CEN
tury. 1t WAS not until the Hanoverian
family of the Geo,ge had given three
sovereigns to the country that court]y
writer's began to talk Of the Anglo
Saxon origin OF the people, and that
the epithet finally became Synonymous
with English.
Anyone who nowadays is rash enough
to proclaim that The English or Ame1i-
can people are Anglo-Saxons is labor
ing under delusion. The civilization
of the Americans and their British
cousins" is not Anglo Saxon civiliza-
tion. The great English commoner,
Gladstone, is a Celt, and the immortal
Washington was Norman. The Eng
lish are as much Celtic as Gothic, and
the Americans are more so.
Without wishing to offend my Scan
dinavian friends, I must say that my
reading of the Norsemen has left the
impression on my mind that in former
days they were predatory people, fond
of war and flibustering, and that in
stead Of being pioneers Of civilization
they retarded it and were great obsta-
cles in its way.
The Norsemen Of the present day are
physically fine race, and make splen-
did American citizens to develop the
material resources of the country, but I
doubt very much it they bring with
them many refining influences into our
American civilization. Divorces are
very frequent among them, and they
aid to swell the ranks of Mormonism,
which is a blot on American civiliza-
ton. Ifrankiy say that [ believe it is
owing in no small degree to the large
Scandinavian population Of Minneapo--
lis that our fair city has already acquired
an unenvlable reputation for divorces,
as compared with st. Paul. Lam ready
to cOncede to the Scandinavians all the
good qualities they possess land they
are many but as civilizers, either now
or in the past. / think they are not en-
titled to recognition. ROGER VAIL.
